Get some flamin mongrel about you Dan

Ring JLM, tell you you want an answer by the end of the day or you aren't paying the full amount, then when you get an answer tell them that if it takes longer than that you won't pay at all.

This^^

And even then i would not be paying the full amount. The time frame you have been waiting for this will be longer than it takes to build my house!

Honestly i'd be saying if i have not got my car by next week i'll be taking legal action.

Even though DOTAR are the people holding it up (apparently), it's up to both Christian and JLM to get your car to you (after all that's who you are paying). They should be fighting the battle on your behalf, and i don't care what excuse they use the time frame has been WAY out if they have been "trying". For people with a good word on SAU they have f**ked you over royally.

Seriously. Call JLM and say you want a 100% answer this week. And you wan't your car next week. And if you don't have it next week say you want a discount for EVERY day it takes longer than that. If they say they can't give you that. Demand all your moneys back and buy Richards 34 and convert it. Seriously it'l take less time!

Also ill give you an example:

When my car took some damage to the front passenger side it took me 4 months of getting passed around by the government getting nowhere. I cracked the shits hard. Called my Auntie (who is a lawyer).

Got a response in 15 minutes apologizing, and asking me to go get quotes to fix the damage. Sometimes these places need a good kick up the ass.

Note to self: Importing takes longer than building a fking house.

I come across as a little kid on the phone.

Just emailed JLM asking wtf is going on and also sent Kristian (ironchef) a PM on here asking what the hell is happening

One of you can call for me if you like :P

Just be firm and confident on the phone. Know what you want before you call, dates, why this, why that, extremely late deadlines and promises, no one accepting fault. Get some answers, show your presents! :)

Also- see if you can speak with a manager or supervisor before you say anything.

Also Dan,

Doesn't matter what you sound like. You are a paying customer and you have rights. Put your foot down and call them. If you don't want to get a parent/Close relative to do it. It's amazing how much impact it can have when you bring someone else into the mix.

That sucks Dan - I had a seamless experience when importing my old R33, in fact the importer would ring me all the time with updates and wonder why I wasn't harassing him more! lol

It will all be worth it :)

Understand frustration around extended timeframes in compliance but i'd take a moment before rushing into demanding phone calls. Pretty sure they won't give you the car until the bill is paid, and a rational conversation will get you a lot further than a Jordan Belfort effort.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
